The free system, it appears, la bUU em
ployed to compensate f oniejof the officers
ofCongress. Ifthere is a "call of the
house," I. c., a general hunting up of
absent membors, the Sergcant-at-Arms
l.i permitted to charge five dollnrs find
twenty cent for "arresting, bringing be
fore the house, and discharging" tuch
absentee. If a hundred members arc
abient, which Is not unfrequently the
case, a call of tho house costs the coun
try five hundred and twenty dollars. If
witnesses are summoned to testify before
n committee, the b'ergeant-at-Arms
charge ft free and mileage for each.
Thus wry person summoned from New
Orleans to testify with regard to tho ne
gro ma-xiTe, cost us three hundred and
(seventeen dollar.-, and the cost of merely
summoning the witnesses In that n flair
was ?J, 202. It cost three hundred and
seventeen dollars to summon "General
Hamlin" to testify before a committee.
The object of the committee could no
doubt liavj.- been accomplished forthree
cents tind a half half a cent for station
ery and three couLs for potago.
Now if money is to bo thrown away in
this reckless manner, If .the capltol is to
remain the scene of waste and profusion
4 we find It now, then I say the people
j have a choice with regard to the persons
' who Miall be benefited by it. They do
not see any Justice orauy propriety In
Henry Wilton's being compelled to pinch
on Ave thouannd dollars n your, while
servants of the body to which hi belongs
retire rich after four years' nervier. It
brings a blush to tho check of every
properly constituted person to think that
a Justice of the HuprenH? Court should bo
compelled to expend his whole salary
for two rooms and board for his family,
while a man ho gets stationary con
tracts sets up hU carriage and buys pict
ures. If the Government I to be plun
dered nt ever . point by every baud, It is
time the npolU were more fairly divided
jjTln re is ny one remedy for this pro
fusion at the Capitol. Congress has hon
estly attempted to cut oirtho opportuni
ties for petty larceny. It naa attempted
it many times, but never with much
success. Tho mileage system, tho frank
ing privilege, the wild aud wondrous
waste of stationary, tho pocketing of
J'rench inkstands and costly penholders
the lugging homo of half reams of paper,
nml nil the small stealing of committee'
rooms, have been, by turns, the theme of
ridicule and tue object or legislation.
Home leaks have been stopped; but
others have been Immediately opened,
nnd the same thieves who pilfered under
the old law have plundered under tho
new. We ought to kuow bit this tlmo
that a privilege In a thing which Is
always and everywhere abused. Wo
ought to kuow that a perquisite Is always
nud everywhere a means oi corruption.
We ought to kuow that nearly every ono
in tho world who Is compensated by fees
gets much too much, or much to little,
or riots In abundance now, to bo started
to-morrow. Let Congressmen simply
abolish fees, perquisites, and privileges,
and accept in lieu theroof a proper In
crease to their salaries say double what
they now receive. Let members pay
their own postage, charge no mileage,
subscribe for their own newspapers, buy
their own envelopes and writing paper,
and compensate all their officers by sal
aries, Nothing short of this will ever answer
tho purpose. If Congress should permit
only so much as a bottle of luk to bo fur
nished to each committee room onco ft
a week, aud charged to contingent ex
penses, r widening crevice would bo
established through which a torrent of
colored fluids would continually pour.
Add pens to tho luk, nnd you would see
equlslto penholders, lltted with the most
oostly dlumoud pointed gold pons, and
huge cases of tho finest products of Uil
lott, heaped high in the storo room of
tho capltol. Completo tho list with pa
per, and you have a thick volume of
wonderful Items, and run up a stationery
bill, tho mero cllpplugs and extras of
which build houses and found wstato.
Tho solo remedy la to pay each member
a decout compensation not less than
$10,000 a year ftn.l allow neither to
members nor to committees bo much as
a sheet of foolscap or a penny penholder.

THE NEW COTTON CROP.
The.am'ouut of tfi'd new cotton Is a aub

At tho rresbyterlou Synod at Sing
Sing, complaint was mado of the fluctu
ations, changes and alterations which
often destroy church connections. Pos
sibly one reason for this Is tho fact that
Presbyterians require a fresh examina
tion ot an applicant for admission when
ever he desires to chango his church con
nection. A good many object to theso
repeated investigations. Old Goncral
Scott could take tho oath of allegiance
every day before breakfast, and rather
liked It, but few constitutions jiro strong
enough to bear such a test, and certainly
it Is not oftrin necessary.

somo locturo the building up, brick ou

The act of tho Louisiana Leglslaturo of
1807, giving ?I60 pension money to such
surviving veterans as can no found who
fought In tho battlo of Now Orleans, 181C,
has led tho scheming and pluuder-shur-Ing
brokers of New Orleans to Incite all
tho old negroes to put iu a claim. Tho
scenes that occur at the examination of
"witnesses' boforo the courts, are amis
iugennugh. As a specimen, tako tho
following from a lato issue of tho Now
OrlcaiiH 'Times:'
Yesterday a "veteran" so called) ap
plied to the Hon. Louis Power, of tho
Fifth District, to make atlldavit that he
was an old soldier of 1S14 15.
What company do you beloug to?"
An evasive answer was given.
"Who was your Major?"
A similar answer.
"Who was your lieutenant-colonel or
colonel?"
Ho couldn't tell.
"How old are you? -
"Nluoty-seveii years "
"How old at the battle?"
"Thirty-nine."
"Where was tho Hold of battle?
"Down at the mouth of tho river."
"How far from here is tho mouth?''
"I dunno I comofroui South Carolina
here (o light that battlo."
"Was the battle-ground one mllyfrom
New Orleans?" ,,
"Can't tell."
"Was It ten? flfty?-one hundred?"
"Cau'ttell."
"What do you mean by the mouthiof
tho river?'
"I mean whnr do Mississippi falls Into
de son.1'
"Old man" ead Colonel Power, "take
back your money; you never saw'the
battlo of New Orleans."
Another "veteran" was called.
"Wero you at the battlo of Now
Orleaus?'1
"Buremassa."
"What company?"
"Capt. Cofl'e, massa."
"What's your major's name?'
"Fore God, I dun forgot."
"How far from the city Is the battlo
field?" "Just about fortv-seven miles."
"Are you suro or that?"
(A nudgo from another "veteran, "
who said, "sovon miles, you d d fool.")
"Yaa sir 8oveu not forty-sevou
miles."
Have Louis Power. 1 'The allocations are
false, and you tho allegator know it,"
Tho veteran tr.ok his paper, aud the
broker, who has accomnauled overv ono
of these veterans to swear that he was at
the battle, otu-red tho clerk his feo.
which was dUdaiufully cast asIde,Baylng
to tho sable applicant, "If you were a
veteran, I'd charge you nothing, and If
you aro not you nave perjury ou your
soul."
